Yaya hails Champions League progress
- 20 September 2012 08:17
- Posted by Mark Booth
Papers continue to process the events of Madrid and there are notes of cautious optimism emerging from Wednesday morning's gloom.
Yaya Toure believes that City going toe to toe in Real Madrid's backyard and almost coming out on top proves that the club are now becoming a member of the elite band of teams on the continent.
In a story titled, "Now we know we belong" in The Sun, City's Ivorian midfielder charts the team's improvement from last season.
"It was not like group games I have played in before — it had the feel of a quarter-final or semi-final of the Champions League," said Yaya.
"And that's where we want to be, so it was a fantastic game for us to be part of.
"For us this was a good test to see what level we are at and to see where we want to go.
"This shows City are continuing to improve and continuing to learn in Europe."
Vincent Kompany picks up the post-mortem baton in today's Independent, stating his belief that Cristiano Ronaldo was the only difference between the teams on the night.
"He made the difference. Without Ronaldo it would have been a different game," said Kompany.
Speaking of Real's winning goal, Vincent absolved both himself and Joe Hart from blame.
"Joe [Hart] initially thought I might have been able to get it. But there was no chance. It was on the side of me and it just floated. He was too quick and by the time you get in position the ball is already gone.
"I think he's one of the only players that can do that. He's got that technique and there is nothing much you can do once he has the chance to take that shot, all you can do is try to close down the space before he hits it."
Gareth Barry picks up where his captain left off.
"The positives are there – we twice took the lead; we've scored two goals in the Bernabeu and frustrated them for long periods of the game," said Barry who made his first start of the season in the match.
"There are so many positives we can take while at the same time seeing the big picture and recognising that we've lost the first game. We're going to need some big performances, but we believe we can produce them."
...Gareth Barry...
Finally, today's Daily Mail reports that former City boss Mark Hughes could swoop for John Guidetti on loan, after losing Andy Johnson to injury for the rest of the season.
Hughes hopes to tie up the emerging Swedish star on a loan deal in January to replace the one time England striker.
Don't forget, mcfc.co.uk is the only place to get confirmed transfer and loan news as and when it happens.
Join us tomorrow for another media round-up where attention is likely to turn to Sunday's Premier League showdown with Arsenal.

Tenure is a term designating permanent and continuous appointment for a full-time faculty member. It implies a mutual commitment on the part of the faculty member and the University and cannot be taken lightly.
Once tenure is granted, it will be discontinued only for grave reason, which may include moral turpitude, flagrant abuse of academic freedom, or professional incompetence. In addition, as expressed in its Retrenchment of Faculty policy, the University may be required to discontinue tenure because of severe financial exigencies or reorganization of the department and/or curriculum resulting in lack of need.
The commitment of a faculty member who requests tenure is as deep and binding on the faculty member as it is on the University. Just as the conferring of tenure by the University recognizes the competence of an individual faculty member, submission to the University of an application for tenure suggests a strong acceptance by that individual of the mission, goals and objectives of the University. The request represents a commitment to work jointly with faculty, students, administrators and staff for the growth and welfare of the University. It is a commitment to devote one's energies to continued personal development and continued high levels of achievement as a member of the Marywood academic community. It is an assertion of career goals; it is expected that a faculty member will not lightly withdraw from this relationship.
The probationary period shall not exceed seven years of full-time teaching/librarianship at Marywood, with application for tenure being made in the sixth year. Successful candidates receive a tenure contract for the seventh year; unsuccessful candidates receive a one-year terminal contract for the seventh year. Faculty members on leave during the probationary period must follow the University's policy on leaves. Interrupted service at Marywood University and also prior service at another regionally accredited, four-year college or university may be credited toward the fulfillment of the probationary period. Such credit will be determined by the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
Tenure occurs by action of the President of the University.
This revised Tenure policy is effective January 1, 2012. Faculty members whose date of hire as full time is before January 1, 2012, may choose the policy in effect prior to that date if they wish.
Procedures for Tenure Consideration
A candidate for tenure must submit a Notification of Application for Tenure form and submit relevant data and documentation in the sixth year of the probationary period, according to the deadline dates noted below. The candidate for tenure is encouraged to meet with the dean and chairperson during the summer prior to submission to discuss the application. The intent of this review is to afford the dean and chairperson the opportunity to offer the candidate informal guidance that will help the candidate to make the strongest case possible for tenure. The candidate is also encouraged to meet with the tenured members of the department one year before submission of the application to identify areas of strength and weakness in meeting the tenure criteria. In applying these tenure procedures for faculty librarians, the Director of Library Services acts in place of both dean and department head. If the candidate decides to withdraw the application, he/she must do so by October 17 or February 21.
(A faculty member who is hired to begin work at Marywood in the spring semester submits a tenure application in the spring of his/her sixth year. For the spring semester dates of submission of the application, refer to the procedures in the Promotion of Faculty Members policy.)
If a due date below falls on a weekend or a holiday, the due date becomes the next business day.
All materials submitted by the applicant will be returned at the conclusion of the process.
The candidate for tenure must:
Procedures for Pre-Tenure Review
A Pre-Tenure review system evaluates the first three years of each tenure-track faculty member's progress toward tenure.
The candidate submits pre-tenure review materials in the fall of his/her fourth year. The candidate must notify the Chair of the Rank and Tenure Committee by September 1 or January 3 of his/her intent to submit materials. The candidate must submit the materials to the appropriate department chairperson by September 10 or January 12. By September 20 or January 22 the department chair submits to the appropriate dean all pre-tenure materials and an evaluation letter based on a thorough review of the pre-tenure documents. By October 1 or February 1 the Dean submits all materials to the Chair of Rank and Tenure along with an evaluation letter based on a thorough review of all pre-tenure materials.
Pre-Tenure review materials should be no more than 35 pages (12-point font). The document should be numbered sequentially, include definitions of terms related to one's discipline, be proofread carefully and contain one appendix which will include a copy of the candidate's yearly self-evaluations and a copy of the chairperson and Dean responses to the yearly self-evaluations.
The Pre-Tenure portfolio must include:
1. A description of the pre-tenure candidate's progress to date in fulfilling each of the criteria for tenure (organized according to the tenure criteria section above); this description should include the following items in appropriate sections:
a. tables that compile the pre-tenure candidate's teaching evaluations, including department, college, and University teaching evaluation means and course GPAs;
b. the pre-tenure candidate's reflection on his/her teaching/librarianship;
c. the pre-tenure candidate's description of his/her scholarship/creative activity agenda/plan;
d. a self-assessment of the pre-tenure candidate's scholarly/creative work (e.g., selectivity of venues, impact of articles, citations);
e. the pre-tenure candidate's reflection on his/her service.
2. The department chairperson's detailed evaluation of the pre-tenure candidate's portfolio, which must include a summative statement of the pre-tenure candidate's progress toward tenure.
3. The dean's detailed evaluation, or in the case of library faculty, the Director of the Library's evaluation, of the pre-tenure candidate's portfolio, which must include a summative statement of the pre-tenure candidate's progress toward tenure.
Pre-Tenure faculty members must structure their annual self-evaluations based on guidelines for the tenure application portfolio as described in the Tenure policy.
Deans and chairs must organize their responses to pre-tenure faculty members' self-evaluations and pre-tenure portfolios based on how the tenure section of the Faculty Handbook is organized. These responses must take into account departmental standards for scholarship/creative activity.
Model pre-tenure files are available in the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs for the pre-tenure candidate's review.

111 Waynewood Ave, Wayne, PA | Directions 1908740.044886 -75.385986
I agree with the rude customer service. They don't seem to understand the simple business concept that the customer is always right. I dealt with Lauren the manager she was rude, ignorant, unprofessional, and obstructive. This woman should not have a job dealing with the public. She even called me back to argue more. I will never go to ame again nor will I recommend to others. My visit there was a horrible experience.
Amazing time, You have to go! – I have been an AME client for years and have referred many of my friends and family there. It is too bad the people below me have had "bad experiences." The staff is very friendly, very knowledgable, and talented. A year ago I had a large bridal party at AME and was concerned with timing due to the amount of people in my party. To my suprise, we all got out of AME right on time and looked absolutely smashing! Everyone in my party got updo styles and make-up applied with not one single issue. Because of my amazing experience and my amazing stylist, I have two friends that will be using AME for their weddings as well.
IMPRESSIVE – Overall great experience. Received a gift certificate for Christmas and decided to upgrade and make a full day out of it. Once I arrived I was very impressed. I was treated as if I was the only client there. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. Great team at AME. I already scheduled an appointment to go back and get a facial and massage in a month. At some point I do plan on getting my hair done there...the people who walked out after getting their hair done looked great!
NEVER AGAIN - UNLESS YOU LIKE BEING INSULTED – I had been a client at Ame for over 5 years for cut & color. When my stylist who I loved left, I tried one of their other stylists - big mistake that just kept getting worse until the horrible managers at Ame added insult to injury.
I paid $75 for my haircut. When I got home and rewashed, I realized it was significantly uneven, longer on one side. That stylist was not in the following day, so management sent me to a different stylist at a $45 price point to 'correct' the mistake. They were not upfront about her experience level - I had to ask. While she was nice, she messed up my hair worse - for free of course.
While offering for me to come in yet a 3rd time for free-for the original stylist to cut yet more of my hair off, when I said I wanted both that AND my $75 dollars back, I was then rudely told that they were tired of apologizing to me, asked if they (she the manager) should feel bad for the rest of her life, and promptly told me I was no longer welcome as a client.
Unbelievable. My hair looked so bad that my co-workers asked if I cut it myself over the weekend. After the embarassment and all the time spent going back and forth, to simply ask them to fix the issue and refund my money was not asking a lot. Their complete lack of respect for their clients deserves them going out of business. Go here at your own risk!
Can't go wrong with any of their services – I just moved to the area and AME was highly recommend. I was hooked from my first few visits in the spa. I def. would recommend the physicians rx facial.
I recently had my cut and color done there and i was so impressed with the results. They turned my beat up summer fried hair into natural looking sun kissed hair. So glad I found this place!!!!
Friendly Staff, excellent treatments – I have been going to Ame since they moved into this facility and love every minute I get to spend there. Nails...massage..hair I have had it all done. They even did my wedding party. Now I have to comment on a previous comment left by another because it is not fair to Ame- if you were late then you cannot complain about being taken in for your treatment in a timely manner. They were waiting for you to arrive! So many people have gone to Ame and get there without a problem, so they probably did not follow directions correctly to be so far off track. And just because someone "checked- in" on you, does not mean they want you off the porch. They may have been checking in to make sure you were not missing another appointment, to make sure you did not need anything and your needs were met. the louge chairs are there for that very reason- to lounge! that said, Ame is wonderful and disregard the comments made by one disgruntled person. there is a reason why Ame has won numerous awards from the mainline to philadelphia magazine.
Not a pleasant experience – A friend and I were having a spa day together. I followed the directions on the website which took us nowhere close to the spa. After calling and notifying them I was running late and asking for direction from where I was currently at, I received not so great customer service and practically had to plead for someone to give me directions. Once I arrived at the spa, I had just sat down to relax on the porch when they called my name for my treatment. I can't remember what I had...it wasn't that memorable. My friends treatment didn't start until the tail end of mine so I returned to the porch to get some relaxing in. I noticed I was being "checked" on when finally a staff member came to me and asked if I had another appointment. I explained...no my friend is having her treatment now, I'd rather sit here and relax than shower and sit and wait. I was told she would be out very soon...hint...they didn't want me on the porch. I took a long shower and my friend still did not get out of her treatment until after my shower to which I had to sit and wait for her to get ready exactly what I wanted to not do. I thought the whole idea of a spa was to relax and enjoy and I hardly got that here. My friend also was not happy with massage, saying it was probably the worst she's had. I would not go again and definitely would not recommend this spa to anyone else.
good pedicure – well, I usually go elsewhere for my spa services but I had a gift certificate for this spa so made an appointment, parking was not great, people were very friendly and I had one of the best pedicures ever. I am considering continuing to come here for my pedicures!
Fairly good – Nice Ambience, easy parking, friendly service. I had a great cut from Brandy but I would say my colour was okay, not great. The people are very friendly.
Editorial Review – From signature Eastern influenced water treatments to massage and facials, spa runs the gamut of relaxation options.

American Notesby Charles Dickens
When Charles Dickens set out for America in 1842 he was the most famous man of his day to travel there - curious about the revolutionary new civilization that had captured the English imagination. His frank and often humorous descriptions cover everything from his comically wretched sea voyage to his sheer astonishment at the magnificence of the Niagara Falls, while he also visited hospitals, prisons and law courts and found them exemplary. But Dickens's opinion of America as a land ruled by money, partly built on slavery, with a corrupt press and unsavoury manners, provoked a hostile reaction on both sides of the Atlantic. American Notes is an illuminating account of a great writer's revelatory encounter with the New World.

Bleak Houseby Charles Dickens
Widely regarded as Dickens's masterpiece, Bleak House centers on the generations-long lawsuit Jarndyce and Jarndyce, through which "whole families have inherited legendary hatreds." Focusing on Esther Summerson, a ward of John Jarndyce, the novel traces Esther's romantic coming-of-age and, in classic Dickensian style, the gradual revelation of long-buried secrets, all set against the foggy backdrop of the Court of Chancery. Mixing romance, mystery, comedy, and satire, Bleak House limns the suffering caused by the intricate inefficiency of the law. The text of this Modern Library Paperback Classic was set from the first single-volume edition, published by Bradbury & Evans in 1853, and reproduces thirty-nine of H. K. Browne's original illustrations for the book.

La casa lúgubreby Charles Dickens
La casa lúgubre es uno de los más perfectos logros de Dickens, con el que afianzó su reputación de novelista serio y maduro a la par que de maestro del efecto cómico. Esta novela tiene tanto de historia de misterio como de crítica a una sociedad indiferente. El retrato que traza del oscuro submundo de la gran ciudad y de la corrupción y retrasos de la justicia se basa en la experiencia directa del autor, que moldeó todos sus conocimientos en una obra que abarca la comedia negra, la farsa y los lances trágicos. En un experimento creativo inusitado, Dickens reparte el hilo de la narración entre la protagonista, Esther Summerson, quien conforma un perfil psicológico digno de estudio, y el narrador anónimo cuya perspectiva complementa e incluso cuestiona la de Esther.«Quizá sea su mejor novela. Cuando Dickens la escribió, había madurado.»G. K. Chesterton
The Christmas Books (Everyman Dickens by Everyman's Library)by Charles Dickens Sally Ledger
Dickens's powerful evocation not only of Christmas, but of the plight of the poor in Victorian Britain Written in the so-called 'Hungry Forties', when Britain's landscape was scarred by poverty and social unrest, Dickens's Christmas books urged the regenerating power of domesticity and human fellowship upon his devoted readership. Christmas is presented as a time when class differences can be dissolved and enmities suspended. \nA Christmas Carol, the comically grotesque Ebenezer Scrooge ("I don't make merry myself at Christmas, and I can't afford to make idle people merry") eventually learns the value of human warmth and reciprocity. But the joyful winter festivities around which each tale revolves are shown to offer only a temporary respite from the social inequalities of Victorian Britain. In three of the stories domestic misery and childhood deprivation are an ever-present possibility which only the social conscience of Dickens's readers could hold at bay; in the other two domestic happiness is also threatened but it is human passions that pin the plot.
A Christmas Carolby Charles Dickens
"Bah Humbug!" That's how Ebeneezer Scrooge feels about Christmas--until the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future decide to show the crotchety old miser the error of his ways. Together they travel through time, revisiting all the people who have played an important role in Scrooge's life. And as their journey concludes, Scrooge is reminded of what it means to have love in his heart, and what the true spirit of Christmas is all about. A timeless story the whole family will enjoy!From the Trade Paperback edition.

Since its publication in 1843, A Christmas Carol has been adapted for film, television, and the stage, proving that Dickens's characters and themes continue to captivate generation after generation.
A Christmas Carol (Adapted)by Charles Dickens Emily Hutchinson
Adapted from the classic by Emily Hutchinson. This 88-page book includes described drawings and an 8-page study guide at the end.
A Christmas Carol (Adapted and Abridged)by Charles Dickens Prescott Hill
Ebenezer Scrooge doesn't like Christmas or any other festivities but one Christmas Eve he gets a visit from ghosts who convince him otherwise.
A Christmas Carol and Other Storiesby Charles Dickens John Irving
An immediate bestseller when it was first published in December 1843, A Christmas Carol has endured ever since as a perennial Yuletide favorite. Charles Dickens's beloved tale about the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, who comes to know the meaning of kindness, charity, and goodwill through a haunting Christmas Eve encounter with four ghosts, is a heartwarming celebration of the spirit of Christmas. This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition also includes two other popular Christmas stories by Dickens: "The Chimes," in which a man, persuaded by hypocritical cant that the poor deserve their misery, is shown what his pessimistic resignation might lead to in a vision conjured by the pealing of bells, and "The Haunted Man," Dickens's last Christmas tale, which features one of his great comic families, the Tetterbys.
A Christmas Carol Complete Textby Charles Dickens
On a cold, blustery Christmas Eve, Ebenezer Scrooge toils in his countinghouse, unable to give a kind word to a single soul. He cares nothing for the spirit of giving, shouting "Bah!" and "Humbug!" at the very mention of the holiday. But four ghostly visitors come to show him a different way, opening Scrooge's heart to kindness and charity, fraternity and goodwill-a lesson he takes to Christmas and beyond.
A Christmas Carol: Pop-Up Bookby Charles Dickens
A very short children's version of the Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol.
Cuentos de Navidadby Charles Dickens
En 2012 se cumplen doscientos años del nacimiento de Charles Dickens, el escritor por antonomasia de la Inglaterra victoriana, y uno de los autores más grandes de todos los tiempos. Entre sus obras más populares se cita siempre su extraordinaria novela corta Cuento de Navidad, donde retrata a un avaro ricachón, Ebenezer Scrooge, que recibe la visita moralizante de los espíritus de las navidades pasadas, las presentes y las futuras. Pero Dickens es autor de otros muchos relatos relacionados con la época navideña, que se reúnen, por primera vez en castellano, en este volumen. La Navidad es uno de los personajes dickensianos por excelencia, la época del año en la que sus asuntos favoritos, la pobreza, la caridad, la compasión, la ternura, la solidaridad o la esperanza, se dirimen y cobran mayor relevancia.
David Copperfieldby Charles Dickens
" Like so many fond parents I have in my heart of hearts a favourite child," wrote Charles Dickens. "And his name is David Copperfield." Of all of Dickens's novels, David Copperfield most closely reflects the events of his own life. The story of an abandoned waif who discovers life and love in an indifferent world, this classic tale of childhood is populated with a cast of eccentrics, innocents, and villains who number among the author's greatest creations. "David Copperfield is filled with characters of the most astonishing variety, vividness, and originality," noted Somerset Maugham. "They are not realistic and yet they abound with life. There never were such people as the Micawbers, Pegotty and Barkis, Traddles, Betsey Trotwood and Mr. Dick, Uriah Heep and his mother. They are fantastic inventions of Dickens's exultant imagination, but they have so much vigor, they are so consistent, they are presented with so much conviction, that you believe in them. They are extravagant, but not unreal, and when you have once to know them you can never quite forget them." T. S. Eliot agreed: "Dickens excelled in character; in the creation of characters of greater intensity than human beings." And Virginia Woolf concluded: "In David Copperfield, though char-acters swarm and life flows into every creek and cranny, some common feelings--youth, gaiety, hope--envelops the tumult, brings the scattered parts together, and invests the most perfect of all the Dickens novels with an atmosphere of beauty." The Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foun-dation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House redesigned the series, restoring as its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.From the Hardcover edition.

Tampa >Food & Dining > Jackson's Bistro-Bar-Sushi
601 S Harbour Island Blvd, Tampa, FL | Directions 3360227.938842 -82.454820
Mon. - Thu., Sun. 5pm - 10pm;Fri. - Sat. 5pm - 11pm
Neighborhoods: Southeast
Jacksons Security is Dangerous – Jacksons security staff are steroid infused manias that look for any opportunity to harm its paying customers. I have personally seen them shove women to the ground. Grab them by their hair, broke bones, choking people because they are excited they can get into a physical altercation. If your trying to have a nice celebratory night out with a group go somewhere else, jacksons security is a liability to the customers
HORRIBLE!!!! – We went here based on the location and one recommendation- never again. Crab stick instead of lobster in "lobster" advertised appetizer. Disgusting, mushy, puny, tasteless sushi. I could go on, but I think that's enough. Very sad place food-wise. It has potential to be a knock-out because of it's location, but not at this rate.
Will NEVER Go Back – This was our second time visiting Jackson's. The first time we went with friends, had sushi and it had bugs in it when it was served to us. Called the manager, who did replace the food but seemed really not to care. Went back tonight. Service was terrible. They never even came back to fill our water. Food was so so at best. I can promise that I will not go back and I recommend to anyone considering this resturant to consider some place else.
Brunch Was BAD!!!! – My party of six visited Jacksons Sunday at 1:30 pm 7/26/09. The first thing we noticed was there was no air conditioning. After being seated, it took about 15 minutes before we had a waiter come to the table. She took our drink orders and sent us to the buffet. The food was nothing special, Denny's and Village Inn have about the same quality. The drinks were overpriced (one split of champagne cost $16), the food was mediocre and the service was only fair. We will never go back, think twice there are plenty of other restaurants in the downtown, Hyde Park and South Tampa area.
Horrible, I can't believe this place is popular – My husband and I have tried Jackson's 2 times. After our first experience which was mediocre at best, we decided to give it another shot. The first time the food was ok but poor for the price we paid and the service was not great. The second time we went to Jackson's we brought our friends from New York. Our order was wrong, I had to go to the bar to collect my own drink, the service was absolutely HORRENDOUS and the food they brought us, though it was the wrong food, was still nothing special. The manager did not even seem concerned whatsoever that our server was absolutely incompetent and RUDE. From food to management, this place barely deserves 1 star.
I have been a patron of Jackson?s for over two years and have always had excellent service and food. The staff has always been ready to serve my party with the best and most professional service of anywhere in the Tampa area, the food exceptional and reasonably priced. It has been my experience with any food /beverage establishment that there are times you can?t expect the personal service you would typically get. Do not expect your cocktails to be served in Waterford crystal on New Year?s Eve, Gasparilla, and Redbull Flugtag and do not expect your bartender or server to stand by your table waiting for your party to decide whether or not you should order the bean dip because it might give you gas. These are their busiest nights and any bar serving thousands of drinks in one night will serve in plastic?glass has to be washed and sanitized. Jackson?s is known for its nightclub which is busy with the younger generation on Friday and Saturday nights. If a quiet dinner is your game?I suggest you go earlier in the evening or pick a weekday night. There is also a very important rule when going out anywhere ?Reap What You Sow Wherever You Go. I am a firm believer of treating anyone who waits on me in a restaurant/bar the same way I would treat my banker, doctor, dentist, and broker. Servers/bartenders should be treated with respect. They are not my servants. They are professionals trained to provide a service to me. They work mostly for tips and should be given just compensation for the service they provide me?just as a doctor or dentist. I am never treated as a stranger when I go to Jackson?s. I look forward to my next visit where I can count on dependable service with a spectacular view of the bay?and hoping to get a quick look at a celebrity or two that frequent Jackson?s when they?re in town.
Not to mention some of the best bartenders in town!
Here's what JACKSON'S is REALLY ALL ABOUT... – Rather then taking the boat down, docking and spending our new year at Jackson's, we decided to take a cab, enjoy and ring in a new year at a place once called fun, friendly and valued. Calling ahead we were told by a girl who i suppose really had no clue, that Fireworks WOULD be shot off and what better way then to see them form the waterfront? Not warned of a cover charge we were herded into lines with tacky signs above lengthy lines A-D, E-H, VIP and so on. Pointed into the VIP line only because we were spending CASH, we were promptly FLEECED of $120.00 to then be shoved into an area of drunken children, dressed as though we had arrived at a high school prom. Laughing it off we were then issued 2 watered down driunks made from a make-shift bar and an igloo cooler. Still no worries here as they were under $20.00 for the 2 and SERVED IN A CLEAN PLASTIC CUP. The staff having been increasingly rude and less caring over the last 3 times I've taken new people to Jackson's for the first time, this night would be no exception. No one told us that although going through the VIP line, we would have had to pay yet an addional $80.00 to find a spot ON THE WATER to watch the fireworks. My date asked me to get a refund and go somewhere, where we could actually HAVE FUN. You know, some place like the waterfront helipad across the water at TGH . It occurred to me that Jackson's has finally become a place where they needed our money far more then I did. Hailing the first cab pulling in the driveway, we jumped int and said "ANYWHERE BUT HERE"... 2 hours before the New Year, Jackson's LOST an old and good customer and we scurried to find an alternate ending of the year. We ended up at an awesome little GAY BAR called CITYSIDE on Henderson and Dale Mabry. The staff ROCKED,m the music was GREAT, the drinks HAD LIQUOR IN THEM and we began a New Year as I hope you All did. HAVING FUN "NOT" AT JACKSON'S.
Good View, Terrible Service – Jackson's is obviously a popular spot based on its location. One would think the service and quality of the restaurant would be top notch because of this. We waited over 2 hours for our food last night, and eventually just cancelled the order and left. It was the worst restaurant experience I have had in Tampa. The waitors, the manager, and the staff were all part of the problem. It seemed to be everyone's first night. Every couple at the table seemed to have a similar story of a past experience at Jackson's. I guess it is our fault for going back to this sorry excuse for a restaurant. Go get a beer after work, sure, but don't bother to sit down and order. Better off at McDonalds.
nice restaurant, aside from the clientele – been to jackson's many times in the past few years. brunch is my favorite time to go, can't beat the spread for under $20. friday night's is a little ridiculous if you try to go for a nice evening; it turns into a club-type scene for those "north of kennedy" folk. most other nights are a steady crowd of decent people, minus the losers and cougars... also, for priding themselves on being a high-class restaurant, they need to get a better handle on their hostess/seating situation.
Brunch Rocks – The best brunch in Tampa. Sit outside with the beautiful view & enjoy a mimosa while you eat a great selection of food. Our place for all special afternoon occassions.

Cops Arrest 4 Oakland Men in Connection with 'Bizarre' Tree Vandalism
The four men (pictured) were arrested and charged Dec. 1 with third degree criminal mischief following an incident last week in which a 25 foot tall, eight-inch diameter tree was cut down and logs were thrown through the window of a car, according to Wyckoff police.
"Their actions are beyond stupid," said Wyckoff Police Chief Benjamin Fox. "They caused a significant amount of damage, they used a chainsaw at 11 o'clock at night, and to think that between these four men, not a single one of them suggested to the others that this might not be a good idea over a disputed $300 bill defies all common sense."

United Alumna Named to Ambassador Post
Dr. Suzan Johnson Cook, D.Min. '90, Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom
WASHINGTON – Dr. Suzan Johnson Cook '90, was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on Thursday, April 14, as Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom at the Department of State's Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and was sworn in on May 16 by Undersecretary of State for Democracy and Global Affairs, Maria Otero. The first woman and person of African American descent to hold this position, Dr. Johnson Cook was appointed by President Barack Obama, and will serve as principal advisor on religious issues globally to him and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. She will be supported by the office of International Religious Freedom in the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.
Upon her confirmation, Dr. Johnson Cook stated, "I am deeply honored by the trust that President Obama and Secretary Clinton have placed in me to serve our nation in advancing the right to freedom of religion abroad. I am similarly persuaded in my mind, heart, and soul that religious freedom is the birthright of all people everywhere;
a foundation of civil society, a key to international security, and it must always be a pillar of U.S. foreign policy." Dr. Johnson Cook plans to embrace the mandate of the International Religious Freedom Act, while aggressively promoting the growth of the Office of International Religious Freedom. Plans also call for Dr. Johnson Cook
to provide oversight of the Annual Religious Freedom Report to Congress, a report that examines the state of religious freedoms in 198 countries throughout the globe.
A noted leader in the religious community, Dr. Johnson Cook is adept at developing interfaith synergies. Founder and President of Wisdom Worldwide Center,
and a former advisor on President Clinton's Domestic Policy Council, she is the first female and African American to serve as Chaplain to the New York Police Department, a position she has held since 1990, and has served as Senior Pastor of Bronx Christian Fellowship Baptist Church in New York City since 1996. Dr. Johnson Cook also served as the Senior Pastor to The Mariners Temple Baptist Church from 1983 to 1986. A graduate of Harvard University, Dr. Johnson Cook also holds a B.S. from Emerson College, a Master of Arts from The Columbia University Teachers College, a Master of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary and a Doctor of Ministry from United Theological Seminary, where she was a member of the Proctor Fellows. She was honored in 2007 as United's Distinguished Alumna.
Through her international travels, Dr. Johnson Cook has had the privilege of engaging various religious beliefs through constructive dialogue that led to the accomplishment of common goals. She has traveled to five continents to engage Muslims, Catholics, Orthodox Christians, Protestants, Jews, and practitioners of several other spiritual traditions. She has visited Zimbabwe and South Africa to meet with Zulu faith leaders to promote religious freedom and tolerance; worked with World Vision, in Ruschlikon, Switzerland, in its efforts to combat global poverty; and has led interfaith delegations to Israel, Jordan and Egypt. As a young woman, Dr. Johnson Cook worked with Operations Crossroads Africa, and participated in a cross-cultural exchange with many spiritual groups in Ghana. These experiences act as key elements of her brand and have uniquely prepared her for
the task of stewarding religious freedom on a global basis.

Bittersweet: The Story of Sugar
Allen & Unwin, 2002 - 190 pages
This social and historical exploration traces the history of sugarcane from its home in New Guinea to Shakespeare's England. Fascinating sugar lore and anecdotes are included, such as how Queen Elizabeth I became so partial to hippocras (mulled wine), sugared almonds, and pastilles that her teeth turned completely black. Explored are the political and sociological impacts of sugar on the world and the tremendous riches available to the unscrupulous few who grew and sold it. The days of manual processing are described, when fortunes were built on the backbreaking labor of slaves. The resulting wars and geopolitical shifts that have shaped the modern world are discussed in detail.

some warm pants
By Jessie
from Los Angeles, CA
I haven't taken these pants out snowboarding yet but I tried them on and I love them. The pockets seem to be perfect for riding since they close and I won't have to worry about things falling out. They are super comfortable and have adjustable straps to keep them up at your waist. The only thing I would say is that the breathability doesn't seem good after trying them on at home. The insulation is very warm but I could see it becoming wet and sweaty easily. We will see how they are as far as waterproofing goes!

Someone I know -- ahem -- intimately once told me that nothing is sexier than a pregnant woman. So round, so fertile, so curvy.
Yeah, yeah, nothing like swollen ankles, stretch marks and lugging around 30 extra pounds to make a girl feel like Cindy Crawford, right?
Wrong. When I got pregnant I discovered just how hot a belly bump can be. Oh, it was sweet, like being a piece of ripe fruit ready for the picking. Hot Milk Lingerie's line of pretty underthings celebrates the sexy mama-to-be with lace and ribbons, and more than a little bit of sass and humor. Wish they'd been around when we were expecting.
Was pregnancy sexy for you, and would you ever dare to show off your baby body like this?Read »

We've been working on a system that first was going to be built with the DX79SI. However, we have run into nothing but problems with it. The system will display a Post Code 67 error, power down, power on, and repeat ad nauseum. The error occurs if there is more than 1 stick of memory in any slot other than Slot 3 (Channel A, DIMM 1). After days of consulting with Intel, we replaced the board with the vendor, but the problem remained. Intel then wanted to RMA the processor, which was done. However, the problem remained exactly as before.
So, we returned the DX79SI for a 79TO, and it does the exact same thing. The BIOS on all boards was flashed to the current version with no effect on the problem.
We tried all the other Intel tech support solutions from taking the board out of the case, not connecting any devices or headers, using different memory and PSU, different video cards (PCIe and PCI) to the aforementioned RMAs.
Here are the relevant specs on the system.
Antec EA750
Intel Core i7-3960X
Kingston KHX1600C9D3P1K2/8G
Western Digital Caviar Black WD2002FAEX (Not plugged in)
PNY VCQ4000-PB Quadro 4000 Graphic Card
Intel DX79TO
BIOS: Version 0453
Various other tech sites have posts about people having this exact same problem. Sometimes it has been fixed, but none of those solutions helped us, and usually their problem was somewhat different such as a different Post Code. If anyone has other ideas, it would be appreciated.
Yeah, I had the same problem but with a G-skill 32GB kit for the memory. I had to increase vccsa and vccio to be able to boot with more and more sticks plugged in the board. After running with 24Gb in memtest for 40hours without a single error I though I was ready to put everything in the case (I had to remove the board and everything else from the case because it was easier to plug and remove sticks when it didn't work).
So I put everything in the case (only 24GB on the 32GB I bought...) and it failed to boot (the same loop boot on code 67). So I removed one stick and finally it worked (with 20GB of memory). I'm very disapointed by this board, almost 3 weeks of tests, trials and error and yet I'm not 100% confident that it'll work without any problems the next time I power it...
So it's the last time I buy an Intel motherboard, it's cheap but very unstable and the support from Intel is very bad on the forum.
Good luck with your problem, it's crazy that with all the trials you did it still doesn't work. You basically changed everything, from the graphic card to the psu, the memory and the board, it's unbelievable.
By searching more on forums I found a guy who has the same problem and in fact it would be a "b7" code and not "67". I did the mistake too because it looked like a "67"...
And he solved his problem by firmly plugging the sticks in the slots, the DIMM slots seems to be tight or the connectors a bit picky. So by removing it and plugging it again it could work.
Or it could be a timings' problem (found on the g-skill forum by a G-skill technician), maybe you should loosen your timings a bit.
Good luck'
I'm having the same problem. Every time I start my pc with more than 16 GB of ram it fails booting at b/6 7. After the auto restart if I have 24 GB in it will ask if you want to go into the bios, 32 GB just keeping on restarting. In the beginning it helped to push on the dims to let it boot with 32 GB but that is not working anymore. I have burned tested my memory and it is all fine. I upped the memory voltage to 1.65v as the default settings is on 1.5v and the PC stopped its random crashing while operational.
This is either a voltage problem at the Memory controller and on my board Dimm's that do not seed properly/ slipping out.
Never had problems with Intel hardware in the last 18 years so this is new to me.
Luckily Intel is backing this board and I know it will be fixed.
Hello, I have been playing around with the TO board for a couple weeks now. I was looking for a support thread on this board when I came across this one, so I decided to try using 8 DIMM's to see if I had the same issue. This did pretty much the same thing, hanging at b7 post code. What worked for me is installing the first 4 DIMM's (in the blue slots), boot up and go into bios, load Optimized Defaults (F9), save and exit, power off and install the other 4 DIMM's. That allowed me to boot, and setup the bios. I dont have matching kits so Im not sure if there is an XMP profile option when using 8 matching DIMM's, but setting voltages and some sub-timings manually was a must. If it is unstable, try increasing System Agent Voltage to ~1.2v, raising TRFC ~107 and command rate 2T.
Overall I am pretty happy with the board, it clocks on par with more expensive boards up to a point.
They should have used a HS on the VReg lke they did with the SI board, temps get pretty warm under load. I installed some zalman ram sinks I had from an old VGA card, that helped drop temps by around 20c.
Hope this works for someone.
I am having the same problem with my DX79TO. I have 64 GB in it and it worked for few weeks. After a while it started booting and it did not stop anymore. The company I bought it from told me would contact Intel support. But no news up to now. I hope I do not regret because I bought something from Intel.
Hi all, I tell them that I had this problem too precupado, so much so that I was to just send the desktop for review by the warranty service. Luckily I could see, and thanks to Intel Desktop Utilities software, the sensor +5.0 v power was throwing a value below the expected normal. For that situation when installing the 4 4g dim and tried each boot failure occurred. In the port 80h always appeared the same codes, sometimes code 43, other B7 and the system automatically restarted many times until finally began. With Intel Desktop Utilities I realized that if I took off three dim memory power output +5.0 v improved a bit and that is why the system booted easier with a single dim. But the solution was to change the power supply with a new one, to provide the +5.0 v correctly. With this, in my case anymore, and so far, I'm back to having no faults. Eh contacted online support and neither could assess the problem could be being caused by a failure in the power supply. The document solutions with system startup the intel site if listed among the possible causes, and just at that line +5.0 v.
I hope this helps you solve problems.

Hi all... I'm a Brazilian, and i tell to justify my bad spelling.
I did have the some problem that first post and you all have.
My MB only have 2 weeks of use all was fine i use 4 DIMM of memory quad channel full on... i decide not use it anymore so i disassemble it all, i was going to sell everything, one day before i sell it, i need use the board to test a VGA... when I tried to use all 4 DIMM, one position of the blue one did not work. see the picture the one with a red line.
The black one's don't work ether???
so i try everything that every one knows or read on the net about memory... Not did work for me...
So i toke it apart again and took a look at the S2011 socket, and discover that one pin seemed a bit off place.
this one on the red line...
I try to fix it was only 0,5mm off but off is off, i use a small screwdriver to tip it to the right place...
And yes it did work just fine, all 4 DIM full on quad channel.
So i put it back to sell because i'm full of PC, don't want to have one for a minimum of 2 years.
One thing i don't understand WAY THE PC STARTS IF A PIN OF THE CPU SOCKET IS OUT OF PLACE???...
And way use this type of socket intel??? it is so fragile...
I hope this help some one... forgive my spelling errors ...

Artest calls Green, "because like a recovering addict there are steps that have to be taken to heal. I could not carry a grudge any longer."
But Green is the same guy who helped cement Artest's public and lasting image as a troublemaker.
"People have better things to do than worry about me," Artest says, and sometimes he really does make sense.
He calls Green, who says right away, "Hey Ron, what's up?"
Artest laughs. "Just like that, he says, 'Hey Ron, what's up?' I wasn't bitter anymore."
They develop a friendship, and Artest explains they have similar issues so he understands Green.
"It's disappointing he didn't come for this, but he's probably trippin' or something, and I understand."
For those who might not remember, Artest is playing for Indiana back on Nov. 19, 2004. He fouls Detroit's Ben Wallace and Wallace shoves Artest.
"I'm raised to take nothing from nobody," Artest says.
There are 47 seconds left in a game that Indiana is winning by 15, and the urge to fight Wallace is overwhelming. But Artest follows the advice of his psychologist.
"Go to a different place and relax."
So Artest climbs atop the scorer's table.
"I was just trying to calm down," he says.
While he's lying there he gets hit with the tossed drink and looks up to see a fan raising his fist. Artest doesn't realize the guy has bet Green $50 he can't hit Artest and he's just lost his bet.
He's about to lose his life if Artest unleashes his full fury.
Artest runs to him, trampling one of Indiana's broadcasters, who will suffer five fractured vertebrae.
Artest does not hit the fan, but shakes him, wanting to know if he threw the cup. When Artest returns to the court, two fans follow. Artest feels threatened. He throws a punch that is so effective it drops them both.
The game is called, and Artest being Artest in the locker room later asks a teammate, "Do you think we're going to get in trouble?"
He gets the last laugh.
He's fine now with Detroit, so much so he's now telling another Detroit story.
